Unfortunately this question can't be answered. The reason for this, is because there is no stated direction for the 'velocity' therefore it isn't a vector quantity, it's scalar.

A pitcher takes 0.10 seconds to throw a baseball which leaves his hand with a velocity of 30 minutes per second What is the ball's acceleration?

That's an impossible Q. Try me on something easier


What is the average velocity of a baseball?

The average velocity of a baseball is very nearly zero. From the time it leaves the factory until the time its outer coat is ripped off and the ball is discarded, it spends almost all of the time in a box on a shelf, and only a very small part of the time in motion.


A rocket ship leaves earth's atmosphere. Its Initial velocity is less than its final velocity. What is this an example of?

Reduced atmospheric drag at higher altitudes, Acceleration due to the thrust of the rocket's engine(s).


What is the velocity of a bus heading to Alpharetta traveling at 15 km in 4 10 minutes?

That's going to depend on where the bus leaves from, or ... what is equivalent ... what direction it has to head in order to get to Alpharetta. You can't talk about a velocity without a direction.


Can You calculate the velocity of a fart?

Generally wind speed is measured using a cup anemometer (wind speed measuring device). The velocity of a flatulation will decrease as it leaves the anus, so to properly measure the velocity the measurement would have to be done before the exit. Theoretically you could measure the velocity of the gases by placing a miniature cup anemometer with walls inside the rectal tract close to the anus to give an approximate wind speed (velocity) of the gases.

Why a high-speed collusion may cause more damage to vehicles than a low-speed collision does?

Higher the velocity of an object means the larget the impact it'll have with it's collision. It's sort of like a baseball pitcher - the faster his pitch the faster the ball leaves the bat (and ballpark).

What happens when a pitcher leaves losing but the team wins?

The pitcher will have a "no decision" (neither a win nor a loss). In the case where the pitcher leaves for a pinch hitter, and the team rallies to take the lead and hold it for the remainder of the game, that pitcher would be the winning pitcher, provided he pitched the required 5 innings.


How does a relief picher get a win in baseball?

If the relief pitcher enters the game with his team behind, but leaves with his team leading, then he is eligible for the win. If he does so, but does not close out the game, then the subsequent relievers must maintain the lead in order for the pitcher to be credited with the win.


How much force in Newtons does a baseball pitcher have to exert on a 250 g baseball to make it accelerate to 50 miles per second the instant that it leaves his hand?

Force = mass x acceleration Therefore you need to know what time it takes to accelerate the 250 gramme ball from zero to 50 miles per second. ( 50 mi/s is supersonic, did you mean 50mph?) Acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) divided by time. Therefore a = (80 467.2 m.s-1 - 0) / t seconds. Therefore force (Newtons) = 0.25 kilogramme x 80 467.2 m.s-1 / t seconds. (80 467.2 metres per second = 50 miles per second) (no baseball pitcher can ever achieve that, by the way).
